Heh, Kazzer is some recording artist rocker or something. He's the only downside to the show... other than the random *** dyno'ing of cars... like the guy with a swapped toyota /upgraded pully putting down 120s

[QUOTE=ericlee303]Thanks, that was my car.

cool car, did you tune it yet? make anymore power? how much torque is it putting down?


I think Sports Car Revolution is the one new show that is actually pretty dam good.

Disapppointed in the segment. I would have rather heard them talk about the perfomance of the car than it's upgrades. I'd love to see them comapre a stock ITR to the finished Mugen RSX and then do a Mugen build up on the ITR.

Thanks Eluder. The torque was above 150 ft.lbs...but was running way to rich. Also for some reason, they did not put the fan on my car, so less air flow over the IC. But no excuses, it was not tuned and put down what it did.

The car is being rebuilt right now...unfortunately some debris destroyed a piston.

Hope for 2.0L Turbo 3SGTE....

I agree. They say upgraded brakes look cool, but they fail to mention that the ITR stops faster than most ferraris stock.

My main reason for disliking the dyno session is the girls that try to remember what to say about the cars. That, and I can understand a dyno baseline before the swap and then a baseline before a tune. Usually it would get backed with a tune then and there to show changes. Thats what would have actually made it a usefull segment, otherwise we just see you put down bad numbers because the car isn't ready.

Aren't they Canadian? If so, shouldn't the tops of their heads flap when they talk?
